A group of Tennessee Republican lawmakers pushed the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Monday to explain how an illegal immigrant accused of raping multiple children was allowed to stay in the U.S. for two decades.
The Republicans, led by Sen. Marsha Blackburn, wrote a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas accusing his agency of failing to enforce American immigration laws and contributing to the alleged crimes.

Blackburn was joined by Reps. Diana Harshbarger, Tim Burchett, Chuck Fleischmann, Scott DesJarlais, Andy Ogles, Mark Green, and John Rose.
